Apparently there was a strong wind today, that probably contributed.
A question for the golf-knowledgeable: I noticed on the last shot of the Valenzuela match that when Ree was preparing to chip the ball from the fringe of the green, she pushed the club head down on the grass while addressing the ball and the ball moved slightly. I don't think the club touched the ball, it pushed down the grass and that caused the ball to move. If that had been noticed, would that have counted as a shot or have been a one-shot penalty?
